I regard myself as a Well-Being Practitioner as I regard and practice health and well-being as my priority. I am the sole practitioner/counsellor in my business after many years of research, personal development and life experiences and after years of formal study.
Qualifications and achievements:
After many years of working because I can, I made a conscience decision to follow the journey that my heart desired, fullfilling my passion and turning my interests into my life.
I have studied Western and Eastern Philosophy, Psychology, Communication, Reiki, Holistic Counselling and Spiritual Healing. Along the way I have dabled in Reflexology, Art Therapy, Dance Therapy, various Meditation methods, even Human and Physical Geography.
After experiencing many of lifes traumas such as the loss of loved ones, rejection, betrayal, abandonment, emotional and or physical abuse, we either withdraw to saftey or fight for survival, sometimes losing ourselves along the way. I believe we are all on a journey and sometimes we lose touch.
Through using a variety of counselling techniques I can help you to bring balance back into your life, providing you with a sense of being whole, teaching you skills and techniques to use in your life to help you stay whole and happy, feeling strong and loved within yourself.
Your Perception IS your World!!!
Always has been, always will be!!
The choice is YOURS.....
Seek not to change the world, but choose to change your mind about the world. What you see reflects your thinking. And your thinking but reflects your choice of what you want to see. Take a majestic tree. Some may see the tree as gift from God—a source of life, energy, and shade wrapped in magnificent beauty. Others see the annoying leaves that will litter their lawn in the Autumn, the roots that could damage their driveway, and the potential devastation of a single lightning strike. The tree isn’t any different. But the people who view it are remarkably different. And their lives will follow the very path of their perceptions. Choose to live life through optimal vision.
OR
The choice IS yours !!
The formula of ultimate happiness
Live a life that multiplies good; so that when you are about to leave, the Earth is better, even though just a little bit, than it was when you came to this world - and this is because of the life you have lived!
If, though only once in your life, You saw tears of gratitude in the eyes of a stranger, whom you may never see again, the formula worked!
Viktor E. Frankl (1905 – 1997)
From childhood I have found people interesting, being raised and moving many times across the country gave me an opportunity to experience many types of communities, climates and cultures, in towns, schools, and groups. I developed into a poet, and philosopher, often and still finding beauty and taking many pictures of my surroundings both environmental and cultural.
Moving to Western Australia over 10 years ago I continued my journey of personal development and discovery in the south west, working and volunteering in the community.
I came to understand that I had a passion for social justice and people’s well-being as a whole. In times of reflection, I realise that I have always had an interest in personal development, what makes us tick and how we can improve our lives, what makes one person react differently to another when faced with the same issue?
I believe we are all on a journey and sometimes we lose touch. Through using a variety of counselling techniques, I can help you to bring balance back into your life, providing you with a sense of being whole, teaching you skills and techniques to use in your life to help you stay whole and happy, feeling strong and loved within yourself.

What is and why a Triskel
The Triskel is an ancient symbol which has had different meanings throughout time and comes from Celtic lore. The triskel has been used since ancient times in Celtic culture to symbolize the cycle of life. The triskel also known as a Celtic symbol for the three goddesses of the maiden, mother and crone, again respresenting the 3 stages of life, Innocence, Responsibility and Wisdom. A triskelion pattern forms part of the USA Department of Transport, the three spirals represent air, land, and sea transportation, demonstrating elements. The meaning of the Triskel for me is to represent the inter-workings of the Mind, Body and Spirit of an individual, combinng the stages of life and the elements. The mind, body and spirit moving forward under the direction of the consciousness of the individual.
